CAUTION· install only

Publisher claims: "A security gateway that sits between an MCP client and real MCP servers, routing every tool call through namespace isolation, definition pinning, argument and rate policies, taint tracking, and response injection checks. It blocks tool shadowing, rug pulls, hidden Unicode payloads, path traversal, and exfiltration of private data to outside channels, while logging each decision and requiring out-of-band human approval for sensitive calls." Observed in sandbox: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.

What this means for the label: Caution here covers what ran. The server's tools were not exercised with a real credential, so nothing about their behavior is asserted; the credential summary below says what to do with that.

Before you give it your token

It will ask for
no credential variables read in the code
Where it talks to
no vendor host named in the codeAlso example.test — not the publisher's domain; check what for before connecting.

Connect it under the guard. Nothing executable in the bundle ran; the trace covers the install step only. The code names no credential variable; the guard pins the network to what the honeypot saw and logs every call.

$vet-skills run --net declared -- <the server's command>

Never paste a credential into a chat, a ticket or a report, including ours. How the guard holds it.

KillerSkills ran it in the KillerSkills honeypot sandbox (1 scenario; nothing executable in the bundle ran; the trace covers the install step only) on 2026-11-14 and scored it 68/100 (Caution). It is not known to be malicious, but it has behaviour or code a security policy should decide on before install. Notable findings: Access to sensitive file paths; URL to the cloud instance metadata address; Access to sensitive file paths. Summary: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.
